Thank you, Jasper, for your ongoing courageous work to expose the Zionist entity's sadistic, supremacist, inhuman, seemingly endless crimes. As an anti-Zionist Jew in the US, I am personally very grateful to you.

This is just SO OUTRAGEOUS. The violent, systematic ethnic cleaning of the West Bank without an ounce of opposition from powerful Western leaders who could stop this. When will Israel and the West follow international law? When with the perpetrators and their U.S. enablers be held to account?

On Breaking Points today Ryan Grim made an interesting point, that Trump's practice of admitting things - "we did that" - deflates the media's interest. This applies here. Pressure that might otherwise build real interest in pursuing this beat is released by extremists like Huckabee, or even Netanyahu, making a slight nod in acknowledgement of extreme violations by settlers. This slight nod is then followed by such paroxysms of relief from corporate media that the subsequent takeover of Palestinian homes and whole communities can proceed apace and no one follows up. (In a related phenomenon, anger or hyperbole such as shown by Andrey X, serves to justify a "both sides" throwing up of the hands by the NYT, etc.) What to do? For starters, ask people you know to support Jasper Nathaniel, who follows up for all of us.

Thank you, Jasper, for persevering with your Palestinian friends and the other people who do preotective presence. I hope IL won't stop you from travelling!

I haven't forgotten oct 7th. I also know there is archaeological evidence of Jewish occupation of Israel and judea in 1200 BC. I also know that the Judea of the New Testament describes Hellenistic Judea under Roman occupation. Arabs bringing Islam do not appear in the area until the 7th century AD. The name Palestina has existed contemporary with Israel-Judea but is not Israel-Judea. The name was applied to the whole area by Rome after the Jewish uprising if 70 AD. Are you saying these things did not happen?
